Emma Raducanu says she is "having discussions" about hiring the prominent fitness coach Yutaka Nakamura as she tries to solve the injury problems that have continually hurt her career.
Raducanu will make her return to competition today at the Billie Jean King Cup Finals if she is chosen to compete by the Great Britain captain, Anne Keothavong, after being out for nearly two months due to a foot injury she suffered at the Korea Open in September.
Having undergone surgery on her wrists and ankle last year, the final months of Raducanu's season have again been affected by her physical frailty. Nakamura is a well-known figure on the circuit, having worked with Maria Sharapova, Naomi Osaka and Kei Nishikori among others, and could be a helpful investment in strengthening her body to withstand the rigours of the tour.
